Ovi Maps
« on: January 23, 2010, 08:00:30 am »
Hey all.  Just letting you know about something I just found on the net, called Ovi Maps.  This is a Nokia thing that aims to compete with the likes of Google, TomTom, and so on, for the GPS map market, and just general online map kind of way.  If you are looking for something that labels the streets in pinyin, go to:

http://maps.ovi.com/

For me, I find it useful, so I posted it here for y'all to see.  Have fun.  ;)

Hefei Maps in English

You can buy Hefei Maps in English at most of the International hotels such as the Holiday Inn, Novotel and Sofitel but they charge 20 RMB now.  They used to be free a few years ago.
